Hi, |

|
3 |
I am looking into replacing fetchmail with getmail on my mail |
4 |
gateway system (I want to use getmails per instance IDLE parameter). |
5 |
The docs say that it can work with postfix, however suitable examples |
6 |
and information is lacking. Currently fetchmail is delivering multiple |
7 |
accounts via port localhost:10026 to postfix. But I cant figure out how |
8 |
to get getmail to deliver mail to localhost:10026 like fetchmail can. |
9 |
This looks like a common use, but I cant see how to do it. |

Existing postfix/master.cf: working with fetchmail |
12 |
|
13 |
127.0.0.1:10026 inet n - n - - smtpd |
14 |
-o syslog_name=postfix-fetchmail |
15 |

getmail: this doesnt work |

[destination] |
20 |
type = MDA_external |
21 |
path = /usr/sbin/sendmail |
22 |
arguments = ("-i", "-bm", "valid_user@127.0.0.1:10026") |
23 |
unixfrom = true |
24 |
|

|
26 |
Delivery to an mbox directory works fine, and the mail system itself |
27 |
including postfix has been working for years (with regular updates.). |
